Berlin Clock

This should be discussed. There are many clocks in Berlin. Which might be most applicable to this puzzle?

Mengenlehreuhr? Maybe. Its an interesting clock.

Taking a look at the puzzle, does the content of K3 have any cooperative links to previous points in the puzzle? Yes, it does. We know the Q in K1 may be related in terms of a calendar convention for the date Nov. 26th. If we knew all of K4, would we see some kind of evidence a priori? Are more calendar clues or dictionary clues to be had? Hard to say.

Id like to think the next step is pursuing the topic of TIME. We learn K4 has something to do with a clock in Berlin. K2 has lat/long coordinates, which are perfectly synonymous with a clock time. I'm curious how it might be related positionally to Berlin or in the case of the Mengenlehreuhr's interesting grid system of 1-4-4-11-4 (second-hour-hour-minute-minute), could there be some alphabetic substitution and positional overlay on the sculpture itself or transcription of the K4 string to a construction similar to the Mengenleuhr design that produces a solve such that once decrypted we see it gives credit to that specific clock for its inspire code system? I think it might. I hope to prove it.

I quickly determined that the 26 letter alphabet could be represented in a way similar to how the Berlin represents time.

This Letter device would need 8 lights set in two rows of 4. All lights off indicate the letter A. Only one light on, the first in the second row indicates B. The first light on in first row is multiplied by 5, and so would read as the letter E. All four lights on in the first row and the first light on in the second row is Z.

Caught my mistake. The way I was explaining it takes 5 lights on top and four lights in the following row.

Maybe something along those lines of representing each letter by a binary matrix system can be used as a method for fractionalization, which could allow for a double transposition. Does that conflict with the 1:1 correspondence of the crib and K4?
